Lens barrel and optical device with the same
View Patent ↗To easily combine a lens holding barrel with a mobile barrel, or separate the lens holding barrel from the mobile barrel, and to protect the lens holding barrel in an assembling process, a lens barrel and an optical device including the same are provided. The lens barrel includes: a first barrel including: a first cylinder that includes a lens and is cylindrical, and a first flange formed around an outer surface of the first cylinder; and a second barrel including: a second cylinder that is cylindrical and aligned with respect to the first cylinder, a second flange that is formed on an inner surface of the second cylinder and supports one surface of the first flange, and a plurality of supports that protrude from the inner surface of the second cylinder in a direction parallel to a surface of the second flange and support another surface of the first flange.
1. A lens barrel comprising:
a first barrel comprising:
a first cylinder that comprises a lens and is cylindrical, and
a first flange formed around an outer surface of the first cylinder; and
a second barrel comprising:
a second cylinder that is cylindrical and aligned with respect to the first cylinder,
a second flange that is formed on an inner surface of the second cylinder and supports one surface of the first flange, and
a plurality of supports that protrude from the inner surface of the second cylinder in a direction parallel to a surface of the second flange and support another surface of the first flange.
2. The lens barrel of claim 1 , wherein the first flange comprises a third flange that is inserted or removed from between the second flange and the supports when the first barrel is rotated.
3. The lens barrel of claim 2 , wherein the first flange comprises a stopper on an end of the third flange to prevent the rotation of the first barrel.
4. The lens barrel of claim 1 , wherein the length of at least a portion of the first flange is less than an interval between adjacent supports.
5. The lens barrel of claim 1 , wherein the second cylinder comprises a connecting hole through which a screw or a pin passes, and the first flange comprises a connecting notch formed correspondingly to the connecting hole.
6. The lens barrel of claim 5 , wherein a portion of the screw or pin inserted into the connecting hole is located in the connecting recess.
7. The lens barrel of claim 1 , wherein the supports are flat members that protrude from the inner surface of the second cylinder, and that each comprises a protrusion that protrudes from a surface of the flat members facing the first flange and supports the another surface of the first flange.
8. An optical device comprising:
a lens barrel comprising:
a first barrel comprising:
a first cylinder that comprises a lens and is cylindrical, and
a first flange formed around an outer surface of the first cylinder, and
a second barrel comprising:
a second cylinder that is cylindrical and aligned with respect to the first cylinder,
a second flange that is formed on an inner surface of the second cylinder and supports one surface of the first flange, and
a plurality of supports that protrude from the inner surface of the second cylinder in a direction parallel to a surface of the second flange and support another surface of the first flange; and a main body on which the lens barrel is mounted.
9. The optical device of claim 8 , wherein the first flange comprises a third flange that is inserted or removed from between the second flange and the supports when the first barrel is rotated.
10. The optical device of claim 9 , wherein the first flange comprises a stopper on an end of the third flange to prevent the rotation of the first barrel.
11. The optical device of claim 8 , wherein a length of at least a portion of the first flange is less than an interval between adjacent supports.
12. The optical device of claim 8 , wherein the second cylinder comprises a connecting hole through which a screw or a pin passes, and the first flange comprises a connecting notch formed correspondingly to the connecting hole.
13. The optical device of claim 12 , wherein a portion of the screw or pin inserted into the connecting hole is located in the connecting recess.
14. The optical device of claim 8 , wherein the supports are flat members that protrude from the inner surface of the second cylinder, and each of the supports comprises a protrusion that protrudes from a surface of the flat members facing the first flange and supports the another surface of the first flange.
